Yes, after the Costco associate takes out the phone, grab it and run out the store with it. If you are fast enough, this will work...
READ FOLKS

READ

Most of the questions asked here are either in the promotion posting, or are just stupid. Read before posting.

The document tells you which items will be accepted for trade. You can NOT do a IP6, or SE, or Samsung, etc.

It really does not matter how much they give you for the trade. The total rebate you will get will total $580.

Yes, this promotion is for people adding T-Mobile new lines. Duh! Think!

Simple math tells you that trading in an XS or XR is probably not going to make sense in most cases. So, if then don't. Duh!

Nobody has asked yet, but yes the phone must be paid for. And yes it must work. And yes it must not be broken. Duh!

And yes, you must have a Costco card to pay for the phone.

How much does ___ cost at Costco? Easy - go to the website. Prices are listed.
iPhone 8 through Apple gets you $220
iPhone XS through Apple gets you $500

iPhone 8 through this Costco deal gets you $580
iPhone XS through this Costco deal gets you $580

Hmm. The agent at Costco Orlando swears they will charge back if you cancel with 24 months!
Tell them "OK" and proceed...lol
They can't do something which isn't in their policy... ;-)

I can see alot of people on here don't read. Just to make it clear, you do have to submit rebate online to get the full 580 trade in value. Just by walking out the door with new phone and mailing in the old phone will not give you the remainder of the trade in value automatically.
I agree with you !
But just out of curiosity, I wonder how are these 2 steps related?
I mean why do they want us to "submit online" as well since anyway we are shipping the old phone out? The online trade-in process is already (almost) done at the kiosk by the store guy right?
And if they really want a record in their "online system", rather than asking us to do it, why not just add 1 more step at the kiosk so the Costco guy can do this for us in like 30 more seconds? Anyway we are just uploading the Costco Receipt and the box-back pic right? We have both at the time we are at the Costco anyway!!!
I am asking this because when I did the similar deal in the TMo store (with 24 months credit of course), those guys did EVERYTHING themselves including the old phone shipping so I had NOTHING to do from my side !!!

I'm on the simple choice plan and switched to the first responder plan. They said change won't take effect til dec 2nd. Went to Costco on Friday, and flex pay kept coming up on guys screen, so he couldn't add it. Went to Tmobile, they confirmed it should be good, went BACK to Costco and still wouldn't work. Any suggestions?
The Costco rep just has to call it in to add your new line

Costco reps aren't supposed to do that.
Your part of the trade-in requires you to be logged into your personal online T-Mobile account.
If you don't mind the rep getting your user name and password to log into it, you can certainly ask them if they'll do it for you, but that's basically a public computer and that's on you.

what are the steps to change the trade in phone to another one? the rep i spoke to told me i have to return and then repurchase but there's a chance i might not be qualify to do trade in.
the original trade in phone fell and the lower corner of the screen kindda popped out , not cracked! under 3rd party warranty they replaced it with another phone.

I'd advise against this.
The steal here is buying a cheap iPhone, preferably the 6s for under $100 and trading that in.
Sell your X yourself because with that phone you can at the very least get $400.

Most people have said that you can do this but I just called Costco in winter park Orlando and talked to the agent. She said she does not have iPhone 11 in stock but even if she had it in stock I am supposed to keep the line for 24 months otherwise they will charge back the $580 for breaking the commitment. She is incorrect?
I am amazed at balls people have to call in store to say hey i am taking this $700 phone but will cancel the line in 2 months after i get my rebate, are you ok with this?

what do you expect them to respond with?

I Totally agree 😂😂
People keep asking these unnecessary questions which raises flags.

I actually passed by last week to Costco and when it was my turn, the rep asked "did you call before coming"? I said 'no'. He said, "good, if you would have said yes, I wouldn't do the deal for you".

Somewhat arrogant on his end but I get it.
